Atlanta, May 9 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of Georgia, the two white men who were caught on camera shooting and killing Ahmaud Arbery, an unarmed 25-year-old Black man, in February, were arrested and charged Thursday in connection with the murder. 

The arrests came two days after the video was shared with the public, sparking widespread outrage.  Gregory McMichael and his son Travis were both charged with murder and aggravated assault, and booked in Glynn County, Georgia, where the killing took place more than two months ago. 

The video was filmed by a third white man, William Bryan, who is Travis’s neighbor.  Bryan has reportedly also been charged but has not yet been arrested.  

Today would have been Ahmaud Arbery’s 26th birthday.
